Thanks for all the hard work on this. I had a couple issues at first with the browser, Bluetooth, and Launcher. But after I wiped again and reinstalled it seemed to be fine minus the browser. Which all I did was clear the data and back up and running now. Been waiting to be on CM for a while now.

16 is a wild mustang! I left my phone charging about 8 hours powered off. Turned it on and got endless boot looping to the Splash Screen . wiped cache and dalvik but no go. In the end I had to wipe data and reinstall nightly 16 zip.

---------- Post added at 07:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

I always just wipe cache, Dalvik and then install the nightly zip. Your data remains intact and it reinstalls the stock kernel. Lazy yes, but it works:D

Titanium back up wont work on this rom tried everything under preferences and it won't install my apps. With other roms like Marcuses titanium will work under any settings. Any way to fix this let me know.

I was having the same problem. I just wiped cache/data reflashed the ROM. It fixed it, so I'd recommend trying that.

You only need gapps. It comes with the normal gtalk.

[Epic 4G Android Development] fami:
Why wouldn't it? A flashable zip is just a fancy cwm package (script + binary), and so long as cwm is capable of properly interfacing with the mtd layer I don't see why the script would fail to properly extract and copy the delta. I suppose there are any number of reasons to explain why this script wouldn't work with CM7, but it seems unlikely that mtd would be the culprit.

I've come across several cwm flashables that won't flash on MTD unless you mount system before flashing. I don't know why, or if that will work with the modem zip, or if one of the other mounting options would fix the problem, but it might be worth a shot.

Wifi Tether issues

Hey, anybody having issues with Wireless tethering and 4G? I know that the native tethering app causes 4G to reset, but I've run into several issues with 3rd party tethering apps.

1. With Wifi Tether I can't turn on infrastructure mode without using either the EVO or Epic Touch 4G profiles (and these are buggy).

2. In WiFi Tether, (even without infrastructure mode), I can turn on 4G but my PC doesn't seem to pull data from the phone when it's connected.

3. In Open Garden, I can't seem to get 4G to connect, I get the same issue with the native wireless tethering system.

Anybody actually have success using wireless tethering AND 4G at the same time?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeEx:
You guys just blew my mind. Amazing work. Feature complete, yeah?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tonysohn:
It's really exciting to see Wimax working in CM7 for the Epic 4G.

Before I flash this, I wonder if the bluetooth is working without a problem.

When I flashed CM7 a few months ago, the bluetooth audio turned off whenever the screen was off. The only way to keep the bluetooth streaming working was to never turn off the screen, which drains the battery very quickly.

This was a funny answer. Let me paraphrase:

Kenny: Hey my SMS is screwed with or without SMS split enabled.

Julian: Can't you read Kenny? It has been stated many times. enable SMS split stupid.

Moral of the story is, Kenny isn't stupid, and you should at least read the post that you are going to talk down to.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
Kenny, I was originally on RC0 and then jumped to nightly 14 always with SMS Split checked on and Split Counter checked off.

I have not had this issue reported by anyone I texted.

Is it only with messages longer than 160 characters, or does it happen with messages shorter than 160 characters?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Only longer than 160. I will try a clean flash tonight and see if that fixes it. Maybe my split button is not working. Or maybe I need to reboot after unchecking (it defaulted to on) and then rechecking.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
Have you tried handcent Kenny? Think that's how its spelled. I was having issues with stock mms too. This one has split in settings as well and works great for me. I used root explorer to disable stock mms and installed handcent.

16 was broke because some additional bluetooth settings were enabled in the kernel. One of these settings b0rked the phone. It has been removed in the repos, but it appears new nightlies are not compiling.

Using Samurai = using a different kernel, which basically undoes the above.

Look on the android market for CM7 compatible themes that you select using the Theme Chooser built into the ROM. The Themes in the themes forum here are meant for the Touchwiz based ROMS and will result in bad JUJU if flashed to CM7.

I use a combo of the cm7 ICS theme, ADW EX ICS theme, widget locker ICS lockscreen, and the stock holo (so incoming calls have ICS rings) and of course the stock ICS wallpaper. The only things I miss from my old TW setup is the ICS boot up and boot down animations, and ICS system animations for transitions and windows.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jnadke:
The pics on the market page don't do the theme justice. The icons are washed out on the market page. When you apply the theme in ADW/CM7, the icons are a fair bit smaller than on that page, and the Launcher icon isn't circular, it's square.

That dev in general has a ton of themes.

Too many issues with this rom that are not listed on the OP, if i missing something please let me know.

1. All stock apps are gone, I understand that, but replacing even the phone, email, camera, contacts isnt something I was expecting. Thats not a problem but

a) Email is enhanced email (i guess), its just too slow to scroll inside the mail

b) Phone app is just messed up, I get a call while I am on the call, and I hit end that call, the loud ring notification just keeps going on and on ... unless i completely hang up the call

c)Cant merge contacts, this is a big problem for me.

d) Voice mail app is completely missing and no alternative to that, I downloaded the apk from someone but still wont work...

Rest is fine, but these issues are really a big deal
[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
why can't you merge contacts?

sounds like you should go back to a TW rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] mmisko:
I haven't had any of those issues on 7.2 RC. I'm running the voice mail application too. The only annoying thing with the VM app is I still get the texts which that big of a deal. Other than that... it has been just a couple of little things like TB not restoring applications but works for data and in-call volume is too low until it is changed. I bet these are either fixed or being worked on in the nightly builds...

You should reread the op again. You didn't do steps like flashing Google apps. Then edit your post.

And um lets go Ravens.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Speedin07si:
1- bloatware is gone on purpose. Flash gapps to get the necessary apps to get up and running.

A-Email works fine for me. You could also try a different email app like K9.

B- its a known issue. Read back the past 10-15 pages maybe more.

C-My contacts merged just fine. Idk about anyone else though

D-Also has been known. People have found work arounds with Sprints VVM app. I personally use and love google voice for my VM's.

OP doesn't get updated with fixes in the nightly builds btw.

So for the person who said I should reread.. may be you should re read..I am not talking about gapps.. I am talking about stock email/camera/contacts/phone app which is not part of gapps AFAIK, I did flash gapps IIRC was only maps , talk etc..

To merge contacts earlier I had an option in the contact window and when I hit merge,, would give me a duplicate contact with the same first and last name, now I cant find any option to merge contacts... how are you guys doing it? may be I am missing something

Voicemail restoring didnt work for me. I read thru the thread but going through 170 pages isnt easy... i downloaded the apk posted here on one of the pages but it never gets updated with the voicemails.. all I have is the 2 default voicemails. Sprint-google vm is not my option, I want to keep them separate.

I agree about the nightly builds.. I am not too concerned about them at the moment...

So 2 questions.. how do i merge and how do I get my voicemail working?

and that ringer in call is really really annoying.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
did u not do ANY research before just randomly installing some piece of software to your phone?!?!?! it's always really important that you understand what the hell you're doing BEFORE you actually do it. all of these issues have been addressed and/or are features of this rom. as far as merging contacts, you can't until you install the gapps package from the op... if you've updated to a nightly, u may need to reflash it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] justppc:
In terms of Contact merging, Hardrock21 might be referring to the SNS syncing that is in the Stock TW ROM under the 'Accounts & Sync' section of the Phone Settings. I just added the two SNS apks from a Custom TW ROM into my copy of the EpicMTD CM7 rom via 7zip to get the sync feature for Twitter and Facebook in the 'Accounts & Sync' section of the Phone Settings.

This has to be done for each nightly that gets flashed if you want to keep that feature.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hardrock121:
ok can someone clarify.. gapps is google apps right..so it shudnt have the stock voicemail/email/camera/phone apks ... what am I missing here

aosp (cyanogenmod) is built without any ties to google at all; the gapps package contains all the google apps needed to sync to your google account, including the market. it doesn't hurt anything to just try and reflash it, and it may just fix your problem...
